The Hidden Truth About U.S. Housing Costs — And Why Gold Is Your Best Defense

If you feel like homeownership is slipping further out of reach, you’re not alone. But what if the real story behind soaring housing costs isn’t what you’ve been told? 

In this eye-opening video, Alan Hibbard exposes the monetary forces that have been quietly eroding housing affordability for decades — and reveals a surprising solution that most Americans overlook. 

What Happens When You Price Homes in Real Money 

Here’s what Alan uncovered: When you measure home prices in gold instead of dollars, monthly mortgage payments have actually decreased over time. 

Think about that for a moment. While your dollar-denominated housing costs have exploded, the real cost of homeownership — measured in humanity’s oldest form of money — has gone down. 

This isn’t just an interesting statistic. It’s a wake-up call about what’s really happening to your purchasing power.

The Fed’s Hidden Tax on Homeowners 

Since abandoning the gold standard, the Federal Reserve’s monetary policies have created a perfect storm for housing affordability: 

  • Rampant money printing dilutes your dollars’ value year after year 
  • Interest rate manipulation whipsaws mortgage costs and home prices 
  • Persistent inflation silently steals from your savings and income 

These aren’t market forces — they’re policy choices. And working families pay the price. 

Your Financial Shield Against the Housing Crisis 

Alan’s message is clear: In a world where monetary policy undermines affordability, gold offers something dollars can’t — protection. 

While the Fed can print unlimited dollars, they can’t print gold. That’s why gold maintains its purchasing power when everything else loses value. It’s not just an investment; it’s insurance for your family’s financial future. 

The Window to Protect Yourself Is Closing 

With mortgage rates volatile, home prices at historic highs, and inflation eating away at savings, understanding these hidden dynamics isn’t optional — it’s essential.  

Every month you wait, the dollar in your pocket loses more purchasing power.  

Don’t let monetary policy rob you of your American Dream. Get the facts and start protecting your wealth today.

Trump’s $2,000 Checks, Auto Loan Crisis, and Silver’s Monster Rally

The government shutdown is ending after 41 days, but Americans face mounting economic pressures—job security concerns are spiking, and car loan delinquencies just hit levels not seen since before the 2008 crisis. Washington’s response? Trump’s proposed $2,000 “tariff dividend” checks that would require borrowing $100+ billion we don’t have. As fiscal irresponsibility accelerates and economic warning lights flash, silver has surged 58% since April, crushing gold’s 24% gains—a reminder that precious metals shine brightest when monetary discipline fades.

Samantha is wonderful. I was nervous about spending a chunk of money. I asked her to `hold my hand’ and walk me through making my purchase.  
She laughed and guided me through, step by step. She was so helpful in explaining everything...

Travis was amazing! I was having difficulty with a wire transfer of my life’s savings, and I was very worried that I might not be able to receive it all. My husband just passed away and I’ve been worried about these funds along with grieving for 8 months. As soon as I got connected with Travis, my concerns were immediately addressed and he put me at ease. The issue was resolved within days. He even called me back with updates to keep me in the loop about what was going on with the funds. I am so grateful for a customer representative like Travis. He really cares for his clients.

Sam was also very helpful! I called and was connected to Sam within 30 seconds. She helped me with a fee that was charged to my account. She had a great attitude and took care of the fee quickly.

    Outstanding quality and customer service. I first discovered Mike Maloney through his “Secrets of Money” video series. It was an excellent precious metals education. I was a financial advisor and it really helped me learn more about wealth protection. I used this knowledge to help protect my clients retirements. I purchase my precious metals through goldsilver.com. It is easy, fast and convenient. I also invested my IRA’s and utilize their excellent storage options. Bottom line, Mike and his team have earned my trust. I continue to invest in wealth protection and my own education. I give back and help others see the opportunities to invest in precious metals. Thank you.
